I have been playing ME1 for months now without any problems. I originally installed it on an XP 32Bit machine but a few weeks ago I built a new Windows7 64Bit machine. The game was playing great until 3 or 4 days ago. The problem is the load screen takes about 3 minutes or more to load or update for play. It doesn't crrash but if I hit resume play after being killed or I'm shooting across the galaxy to the next planet on the Normady I can go warm up a cup of coffee in the microwave and come back and it still wouldn't be ready to continue. It will eventually continue. I'm feeling this might be related to Windows7 because if I hit ctrl/alt/del task manager will pop up for a second, before I can do anything else the game sound will start and the screen will be black for a few seconds longer, then the game continues fine right where it's suppose to.
System Specs:
AMD Phenom 955BE CPU
4GB Patriot Extreme PC 8500 Ram voltage set in BIOS @ 2.1v
HIS Radeon HD 5850 GPU connected by HDMI cable to Panasonic 42" Plasma ( I forget the resolution)
750W Silverstone Styder PSU
WD Velociraptor 300GB HDD
Windows7 64BIT
loading screen waits minutes now

I have had some very large pauses when loading/saving on win7 x64, but nothing quite *that* long (15-30 seconds). I had guessed it was some graphics driver issue, but since you are running AMD/ATI it is likely more subtle than that. Did you copy the profile over with the saves? I'm just wondering if it might be something to do with that -- I've had peculiar timing bugs with the game related to a profile moved around between different versions of the game on different systems.
The usual full hard drive scan/check should be done also. Massive pauses can be a sign of corruptiuon, though modern versions of Windows are usually very good at dealing with this.
Have you tried disabling the sound (in the game configuration app) and seeing if that fixes the issue, out of curiosity?
